Starbucks, Nooks, & Kindles. . .
Welcome to Day TWO of the Crescent Moon Press blog tour. I’m David. Lynn writes about me in Wasteland, which is soon to be released by Crescent Moon Press.
Be sure to visit all the author blogs and websites on May 24th, 25th & 26th. Each has a quest for great prizes and a chance at the final Grand Prize: ҬA Kindle or Nook (your choice) filled with a dozen books from Crescent Moon Press!
I have not encountered one of these devices called a Nook or Kindle yet, but I understand they are quite popular. If I only had time to relax and read a book…too busy searching for my Mark, Jessica Hanks.
Onto the quest …..
Today’s prize is my Fit In Anywhere Pack:
Starbucks Gift Card
Baseball cap
Sunglasses
Gum
People magazine
Being over four hundred years old and having just been released from a long spell in sensory deprivation, I didn’t understand the first thing about fitting into this strange era. This little Fit In Anywhere Pack helped, so I figured I would share it. . .
Here’s how to enter
1. Email Lynn ([email protected]) the answer to this question: How long was I in sensory deprivation? Here’s a hint –>The answer is HERE. **don’t leave the answer in the comments** Doing this earns you one entry in the grand prize drawing and one entry in today’s drawing.
2. For an additional TWO entries into today’s drawing, click HERE and “like” the Crescent Moon Press Facebook page.
3. For an additional THREE entries into today’s drawing, leave a comment here telling me what your favorite Starbucks drink is.
Now, onto your next stop with Rachel Firasek

I will draw the winner tonight and post it in the comments by tomorow, so you might want to choose the subscribe to comments or remember to check back to see if you’re the winner.
Best of luck on all the quests.

DAVID
Hello, Dottie. Thank you. We are quite excited for the book release. Thank you for commenting.
Jennifer Wells
Hi Lynn! I’m just stopping by to say hi. My favorite Starbucks, by the way, is chai latte with a shot of pumpkin spice syrup. Too bad the flavor is seasonal and not year-round!
DAVID
Hello, Jennifer. I’ll tell Lynn you said hello. Thanks for sharing your favorite drink with us.
Jessica B.
I liked the cresent moon facebook page.
DAVID
Thank you!
Jessica B.
I don’t go to Starbucks too often because they are a little pricey and I’m not big into coffee. But I do like their Frappuccinos- the strawberries and creme or the vanilla bean. Lookin on there site has me wanting to try there Vivanno smooties. .
DAVID
I do enjoy their smoothies. Thank you for commenting!
Tara
I know you’ve drawn a winner but for the grand prize, we have to do them all and I’m joining late. 🙂 So just for kicks and giggles, my fave drink is an oldie, the Blackberry Green Tea Frappucino. I loved it and miss it! The book sounds fantastic, good luck with it!
DAVID
Hi, Tara. Yes. You are to do the quests on each for the grand prize. Thank you for commenting here as well! Thank you for your well wishes on the book.

Yum!
Good luck with the new book!!!
Lisa 🙂
DAVID
Thank you, Lisa. Sorry for my delayed response. I ran into some….trouble….with my mission to get Jessica Hanks. Thanks for commenting!
Stephanie Van Winkle
My fav. would have to be anything with lots of extra shots and pepperment and choc. flavoring!!!!
Hildie McQueen-Bennett
Hi Lynn, I always order a skinny latte with sugar free caramel flavor. It’s yummy! Having great fun here.
DAVID
Thank you, Hildie. CMP is putting on a great tour!
katjameson
Mocha light frappachino with an add shot, yummy, actually I just finished one. They make me happy and easier to live with =)
DAVID
Does caffeine not affect you? It is so late and you just finished a coffee with a shot? You must be part demon like me if not affected by the caffeine . . .
MonaKarel
What a great way to get comments! Hi David – my favorite Starbucks is straight up black coffee and I’m really happy when they’re brewing Sumatran
DAVID
Finally, someone who likes black coffee. By straight up black, I’m assuming you do not add any creamer. I do like creamer on occasion…but mostly just plain.
Brinda
Caramel Macchiato is the bomb.
DAVID
“Is the bomb.” This is a new slang phrase I’ll have to remember. Thanks for visiting, Brinda.
Heather Powers
Liked the Crescent Moon Press on facebook.
Strawberry Vivanno Smoothie is my favorite drink.
Thanks for giveway,

DAVID
Thank you, Heather. Best of luck on the drawings.
Kate
My favourite drink at Starbucks is: Caramel Frappuccino Light Blend
Which i would quite happily share with David any day
DAVID
Why thank you, Kate. I am honored.
Amy
My favorite drink is a Venti Gingerbread Soy Chai. It’s very tasty. But since it’s seasonal, I get by with a Cinnamon Dolce Soy Chai instead.
DAVID
Amy–that is quite a mouthful to say…Venti Gingerbread Soy Chai. Then again, I am quite new at this type of coffee ordering.
Lynn Rush
Am I allowed to comment since David is running the blog today? 🙂
Looks like you’re having fun, David. You like this technology thing more than you let on…
i’m not a coffee drinker, but I love the caramel apple cider for sure. Extra caramel!
DAVID
Hi, Lynn. Of course you’re welcome. And yes….I think I am learning more about this technology. It’s not….so bad.
MaryC
I love the Zen green tea.
DAVID
Zen…I need a little of that right now.
Bethany Oliver
I’m a huge fan of the peppermint cocoa that they have during the holidays. It just doesn’t seem like the holidays without it.
Best Wishes,
Beth Oliver
DAVID
I look forward to trying that this holiday season.
Michelle
No caffiene here, I love the salted caramel hot chocolate. Nice site BTW. 🙂
DAVID
Salted Caramel hot chocolate. That is a new combination of flavors….but it sounds very good.
Alicia Coleman
My favorite Starbucks drink is a Moca Frappacino. Enjoying the tour.
DAVID
Thanks, Alicia. I’m glad you’re enjoying the tour of blogs. Such an interesting concept.
Lita
I am a tea person so I try whatever green tea they have available.
DAVID
Green tea…so, they are identified by colors?
tanya reimer
Oh, I’m a hot chocolate type of gal!
DAVID
I, too, enjoy the hot chocolate. More with whipped cream. My cohort, Gage, tells me I lost my “man card” by admitting that; however, I’m not sure I understand the idea of “man card” yet. . . .so much to learn about this era.
Judy Cox
My favorite is the Mocha Frapp. A couple weeks ago I tried the Mocha Coconut Frapp and it was delicious. You have to like Coconut!!!
Judy
magnolias_1[at]msn[dot]com
DAVID
Judy. That sounds like a great drink
Susan Hazzard
My Favorite Starbucks is the Vente Hot Chocolate with wonderful whipped cream. Yum!!!
DAVID
Thank you, Susan. Chocolate and whipped cream do go well together I must admit.
Shannon Eckrich
Hey Lynn,
Just stopping by to say hello to you and David. Coffee is not my thing, but hand me a tall glass of Pepsi and I’m ready to go.
Awesome prizes and great post!
DAVID
Hello, Shannon. I do know, that while Lynn was penning this novel, she consumed an extreme amount of Diet Pepsi. I often hear her commenting about how much she likes soda.
Anne
The orange mango smoothie is my favorite drink (not a coffee drinker).
DAVID
I have had the orange mango smoothie. Very good!
Annie K. Griggs
It would have to be the hot chocolate, as I don’t really like coffee. Mind you, I like coffee flavored ice cream and coffee flavored candy, but not so much with the real thing.
I fail at coffeeness.
LeSigh
DAVID
Annie. Coffee flavored ice cream….I will have to try some of that.
Calisa Rhose
Um I forgot to follow. 😉
DAVID
Thank you, Calisa
Calisa Rhose
David- you must try the Mocha with a shot of cinnamon syrup, smothered in whipped cream, and topped with lots of chocolate drizzle! And the mocha frappe (the iced version also w/cinnamon) is to die for.
DAVID
Calisa, I do think I would rather enjoy the whipped cream and cinnamon. But with chocolate, too?
Calisa Rhose
I treated myself to just this Friday. The lady forgot the whipped cream AND the chocolate… I did not enjoy my expensive treat as much as I had anticipated. 🙁 YES! Must have the chocolate, too!!!
Tricia
My favorite Starbucks drink is: Medium Vanilla Iced Mocha.
DAVID
Thank you, Tricia.
lbdiamond
I like Dunkin Donuts iced coffee. 😉
Nice quest, David. Good luck to the participants!
Looking forward to reading your book, Lynn.
DAVID
Dunkin Donuts. . . I have not tried their coffee yet. But you like it more than Starbucks. That is saying something, indeed!
Jillian Chantal
Mocha Frapp all the way, baby!!
DAVID
Hello, Jillian. Thanks for stopping by. Hope you are able to enjoy a Mocha Frapp today!
Kendall Grey
Mmm…Starbuck’s! I usually make my own at home, but when I venture out, I order a venti sugar-free skinny vanilla latte. I could drink five of those in a row. *GLUG* 🙂
DAVID
Hello, Kendall. Please, give my regards to Gavin. I have not forgotten our….enlightening interview. You can make Starbucks coffee at your home?
wyndwhisper
i like just a regular coffee. i know that is boring but i like coffee flavored coffee.
DAVID
I, too, enjoy the plain, black coffee. Evidently it’s not as “in” –or so I’m told. But like I refused to cut my hair to “fit in” I will stick with my boring coffee.
JeanP
Mocha Frappacino is my absolute favorite.
DAVID
Hi, JeanP. This seems to be a popular one.
Rylee
My favorite is the Caffe Vanilla Frappucino
DAVID
Hello, Rylee. Thanks for commenting. Best of luck on winning the grand prize!
Victoria Goldy-Rhodes
My favorite Starbucks drink is the Spiced Apple Cider they have in the fall…any other time, I usually get one of their teas!
DAVID
Hi, Victoria. Is this the one with caramel? It sounds very good.
Jill W
Hands down, the Mocha Light Frappuccino! Boy, I wish I had one now! 🙂
DAVID
I may have to get some coffee very soon. Long day ahead searching for my Mark…
Theresa
I don’t get starbucks very often since there isn’t one in my town, but I love a mocha with a shot of espresso! I liked the facebook page, too. 🙂
DAVID
Thanks, Theresa. I once heard a man order extra shots of espresso. He must need extra energy to endure his day.
Ciara Knight
My favorite drink is the Punpkin Spice Lattee. It’s seasonal of course but I usually drink skinny lattees. 🙂 I already Like Crescent Moon Press.
DAVID
Thanks for commenting, Ciara. I have heard the caramel apple cider is quite good as well.
Lisa Richardson
I love the mocha frappacino most of the time, but I also love the Awake tea latte with a single tea bag!
DAVID
Hello, Lisa. I have once tried something called a Frappacino at Starbucks, but, call me old fashioned, I rather like just black coffee. 🙂 I might venture a try with the teas, though.
Lindsay
My favorite Starbucks drink is ONLY available at the Starbucks in Meriden, CT.
1/2 decaf iced coffee, venti, 2% milk, 4 pumps of CD (that’s cinnamon dolce for the uninitiated) in a double hot cup.
My Starbucks is the only one, that I know of, in the country that has decaf iced coffee available 24/7/365.
DAVID
Hello, Lindsay. Thanks for leaving a comment! Your drink sounds very tasty.
